Technical V belt rubs P/S install ‘63 Impala

Hey guys I added factory P/S to my ‘63 Impala. All the parts are stock and new for a ‘63 but why is the alternator/fan belt rubbing? Any ideas to correct this? Thanks

 

Pump to high? Doesn't quite look like a factory bracket.

 

Move the alternator

 

I thought 63’s had a generator? Raise it up, or possibly shorten the Gen belt. They were very close stock. Maybe 1/4” off.

 

Alternator ? or Generator ?
Run a straight edge from the power steer pulley to the water pump pulley.[inside the "V"]
Do the same with the crank /waterpump pulley to the alt/gen

Not too well known is the flange depth on the early short waterpumps is different between Alt and Gen
Most replacement short waterpumps are for a Corvette.

The crank pulleys also vary in depth

 

2 things. It looks like there is a spacer or some other piece of material between the Pump braclet and the block. How well does the Pump pully line up with the bottom crank pully groove? It looks to be forward some, can't have that.

 

Got a pic from the front

 

All the pulleys line up. If I mess with the alternator then the PS pulley will be off.

 

Can you slot the P/S pump or bracket to move it down 1/4"?

 

Can you show a pic of how you routed that belt?

 

63 was the first year that Chevies came with an alternator.

 

Yeah I tried with a different belt and shorter slot positions and still rubs

 

These are the brackets I used.

 

Is this the type exhaust manifold (per alternator mounting) and alternator brackets you have?
